Doctor Strange

Action, Adventure, Fantasy

A former neurosurgeon embarks on a journey of healing only to be drawn into the world of the mystic arts.

The critical consensus

The film has hugely fun moments, nice signature Marvel banter, strong performances and some impressive CGI, but we would expect nothing less from the comic book studio. Unfortunately I had expected a whole lot more and was left a tad underwhelmed.

While the kaleidoscope visuals may constitute risk, the film fails to provide a character who does the same; perhaps future sequels will add to Strange’s repertoire, like how the Iron Man sequels added to Stark’s.
